Customer Question

I recieved my final divorce papers in November 2011. we had a house that we were selling as a short sale, we owed too much. we both had moved out and the house went up in flames by kids in the neighborhood...the house has now been rebuilt from foundation up. all i want to do is sell this house and deal with the losses, but now he wants to move back in because the mortgage co has told him that thats the only way he can sell it....meanwhile i've been signing all these insurance checks for the builders to finish landscaping, etc. My ex was awarded half my pension in the divorce, i got NOTHING, cause he never held a job more than 2 years in all of our 24 years of marriage. My divorce cost me 20,000 dollars and im tapped. My ex says he would sign over the half of my pension back to me if i agreed to sign a loan modification loan because my name is XXXXX XXXXX the house..I want out of this nightmare and i dont know what to do or who to go to...i just dont understand what makes him think that he can afford this house on his pay . i want my name off everything and i dont want him to get this brand new house when i got so screwed in this divorce and the divorce states that the house is to be sold, but he"s given me a hard time and definitely dont want to deal with the lawyer i had. what kind of lawyer do i need?

I will tell you that...the things you have to go through to be an Expert are quite rigorous.

It worked great. I had the facts and I presented them to my ex-landlord and she folded and returned my deposit. The 50 bucks I spent with you solved my problem. TonyApopka, FL
